With no reviews that i can find, I bit the bullet and order one.

Right now transmission 2 1 shift seams late as in when i leave from a stop there is a delay, like it is in 2nd then finds 1st and then goes, shutter at cruse and some odd shifting.

Will report latter.

The in stall went well, very strait forward.
The pan cam off with out messing with the cross over pipe. I followed a video on u-tube.
I was very surprised how little clutch material was in the pan. My guess is the tranny has been serviced before I purchased it.
By the looks of the pulse dampeners pistons (no ware) the valve body had work on it as well.
I can tell it is shifting a little better, but I am still in the break-in period.

I followed this to get better longevity from my transmission as well. U-tube video

GM 8 Speed | Transmission Tuning Tutorial​

I still have the 2 1 shift delay.

I think it has something to do with my speedometer is delayed coming to a stop and the tune has 3 2 and 2 1 shifts at the same speed.
I changed that in the tune and when testing I noticed the speedometer delay.

Is there an update on this effort? I am considering this option to finally end the issues with my 2018 Colorado with the 8L45.
